    I did not see that result coming. Great win for the Dragons. Pity about the injuries they suffered.
    Didn't see that coming either. Widdop no chance for next week. Graham and De Bellin looking like they'll play though. Dragons can beat Souths if they repeat that performance. Big big if though.

    I have Roosters backed outright at 9/2 to a small stake, but wouldn't mind seeing Sharks win.

    Sharks well on top of the Panthers so far, lead 14 nil after 15 minutes.

    Oh well, give me an easy life and a peaceful death.

    Sharks asleep start of 2nd, game on after Holmes fupped about in goal. Lead down to 10.

    Edit: Lead down to one converted try.
    Edit 2: All Square after kick. Wheels have well and truly fallen off the sharks, virtually nothing left on their interchange bench either.

    Oh well, give me an easy life and a peaceful death.

    Scrappy game, but exciting none the less. Sharks found just enough in the end with the drop goal. Can't see them troubling Storm .

    Oh well, give me an easy life and a peaceful death.

    Sam Burgess obviously missed the Bunnies social media training day. Graphic images from his account made their way to a young woman's phone.

    Talk about a bad time for the Rabbitohs to be dealing with that.

    I thought the Sharks were going to coast through after the first half but credit to the Panthers for running them close. Wonder if Gallen will be back for the Storm game...

    Bad timing for Souths. When will these fools learn? Good win by the Sharks though. Still can't go past Roosters or Storm to win it.

    Dragons have done well but the Rabbitohs just hit back. 10-8 Dragons now with just over 20 minutes remaining.

    Update: All square now with 20 minutes left.

    And now Reynolds puts them in front with the field goal. Exciting finish to this.

    Dragons should have got a penalty.

    Edit: now they get one.

    Reynolds again!

    Why did the Dragons run it?

    And that's it. Reynolds with nerves of steel.

    Dragons just ran out of steam I think. The last 20 mins they tackled hard but looked tired. Has to be a Roosters Storm GF I'd say. Souths and the Sharks will be knackered next week.

    Dragons just ran out of options on the bench unfortunately, missed Widdop too.

    How do we see Storm vs Sharks going?

    I can't see Sharks doing it without Gallen and Graham. It would take some effort, especially seeing as Storm look to be at full strength and are fresher.

    Comfortable Storm win I reckon. Hope I'm wrong.

    Hope you are too..have set it to record but there's no way I won't have seen the score by time I get home this evening.

    Yeah pretty routine win in the end. Pity the Sharks couldn't offer more but it was a big ask.

    Slater now at risk of missing the final for the shoulder charge on Feki.

    Actually caught that bit on my phone on tea break. Would have changed the game completely had he gone over there.

    Surely they wont ban Slater for the grand final on his last game. This is all we'll read about now over the next few days.

    Think that's the final everyone would have predicted. So I'm a Roosters fan for the rest of what's left of the season.

    I plumped for the Roosters to edge out the Storm before the season...

    Don't let me down now!

    Hope Cronk can recover from his shoulder injury. Latrell and Napa come back for the final, don't they? I feel it will be a great occasion. Can't wait.

    Slater gets off. Cue the media s***storm (pardon the pun).
